本文用格点QCD模型无关方法计算η_c→2γ衰变宽度,消除激发态效应并控制粲夸克质量调谐,得到6.67 keV,与粒子数据组值存在2.9σ张力。

摘要:

我们采用一种模型无关的方法进行了$\eta_c\to2\gamma$衰变宽度的格点QCD计算,该方法无需对离壳形状因子进行动量外推。该方法还提供了一种直接且简单的方式来检验有限体积效应。计算使用$N_f=2$扭曲质量费米子系综完成。我们观察到统计上显著的激发态效应,并通过多态拟合将其消除。我们还检验了粲夸克质量精细调谐的影响,并确认其得到了良好控制。最后,使用三个格点间距进行连续极限外推,我们得到衰变宽度$\Gamma_{\eta_c\gamma\gamma}=6.67(16)_{\mathrm{stat}}(6)_{\mathrm{syst}}$ keV,这与粒子数据组报告的$\Gamma_{\eta_c\gamma\gamma}=5.4(4)$ keV(2.9~$\sigma$张力)存在显著差异。我们对我们的结果、先前理论预测和实验测量之间的比较提供了深入见解。

英文摘要:

We perform a lattice QCD calculation of the $η_c\to2γ$ decay width using a model-independent method that requires no momentum extrapolation of the off-shell form factors. This method also provides a straightforward and simple way to examine the finite-volume effects. The calculation is accomplished using $N_f=2$ twisted mass fermion ensembles. The statistically significant excited-state effects are observed and eliminated using a multi-state fit.The impact of fine-tuning the charm quark mass is also examined and confirmed to be well-controlled. Finally, using three lattice spacings for the continuum extrapolation, we obtain the decay width $Γ_{η_cγγ}=6.67(16)_{\mathrm{stat}}(6)_{\mathrm{syst}}$ keV, which differs significantly from the Particle Data Group's reported value of $Γ_{η_cγγ}=5.4(4)$ keV (2.9~$σ$ tension). We provide insight into the comparison between our findings, previous theoretical predictions, and experimental measurements.
